Which models have active air dam and grille shutters?

FYI - Posts #2 and #14 on this thread say they have both.

I just looked at the 2020 brochure and it says it's not available with air suspension. Fixed (MXA) is Active (MXB) isn't.
If OP can provide his build sheet than we can confirm.
Maybe confusing active grille shutters and active air dam. They haven't got a 2020 with air suspension at my local dealer so I can't crawl under it and confirm.

My point exactly, thank you.

I crawled under mine and was saddened to find there was not one installed. I plan on ordering & installing one. Hopefully I will be able to make it function. If not I think it will be beneficial if it remains in the "deployed", lowered position.

My 2020 Limited with Air Suspension has the active dam underneath. Not sure if it deploys though. But I saw it underneath when doing the oil change and has a motor that seemed to be locked and I couldn't manually deploy.. anyone know if it works on the limited?
 
Same here with my 2020. Air suspension and active air dam. Not sure if it deploys or not. If I had a go pro, I could probably video it.

l'm sure if it's there it is working ... l too have the 2020 Limited and it has the active air dam....
 
I wouldn’t mind having it. 2019 limited build date 2/19.... I have the brackets and bolts but no active air dam.. super weird, almost like they forgot to add it. Anyone else have these brackets like this.... E111D570-6AA5-4197-A6FF-6FBDA6168520.jpeg

That isn't where it mounts. I have the same brackets. The active air dam mounts right behind the fixed one.
 
I'm not sure. I put my oil filter relocation kit just forward of those. I can get a pic of the air dam after while.
 
Manual says it activates when you pass 30 MPH. So, this thing is going up and down like a yo-yo for most commuters. I wonder how many months of service we'll get out of this before the motor fails or the bushings seize up from road salt and water?

Here are the pics of the active dam on my truck. 20200309_163351.jpg20200309_163339.jpg

Yep, that's where it mounts. On those 4 studs. Mine didn't have one either. Nor did it have the wiring harness for it..

Weird.... maybe more of a hassle than it’s worth.
 
I have a 2020 1500 Laramie (off road pavkage as well) with 4 corner air and my window sticker states that I have active front air dam
 
Those of you saying it's not available on trucks with air suspension are spreading false or out-dated information. That may have once been true, but it's not true any longer.

I removed the active air dam on both of the trucks we have. One is a 2020 Laramie without air suspension, the other is a 2020 Limited with air suspension. Both trucks were equipped with the active air dam, and it was active on both.
